I spent the whole day thinking about this barley and carbon thing. Mainly because I am bad at science but it didn't distract me from the challenge. It just seems weird to me that someone can say that "the growing and processing of hops and malt into beer and whisky producing 1.5 per cent of Britain's greenhouse gases" while another beer study seems to show that the

net benefit of barley to the planet is not included in the greenhouse calculation. How can that be? I usually don't fight these things. I usually line up, close my eyes and accept these things with an... err... open mind but you read stuff like this and it gets you thinking:

Over a 20-year lifecycle, the right species in the right conditions can absorb over 40,000 tonnes of CO2 per square kilometer. So a plantation of 100 square kilometers can absorb 4 million tonnes of CO2 over 20 years.Which means that 100 square km can absorb 200,000 tonnes in a year. Or 2,000 tonnes per square km per year. Or, given that there are 247.1 acres in a square km, 8.1 tonnes per acre a year. Then there is the retention rate. If you look at footnote 24 (warning .pdf) , you'll see that the equilibrium level of carbon in cropland soils ranges from a minimum of 17 tons per acre to a maximum of 36 tons per acre (the mean is 24 tons per acre). A mature forest, by comparison holds 140 tons per acre which makes sense if you think of the trunks and branches of trees as a carbon sink.So, crops like barley retain about 17% of the carbon that a forest does. Do they absorb at the same ratio? I couldn't find that fact. So, I am going with the 17% ratio for now. Which means that barley may well absorb 17% of 8.1 tonnes per acre per year. Or 1.377 tonnes. That's a lot. And what does it have to stack up against? One acre of malt barley will make about 540 cases of beer and a 60-case pallet of beer produces more than one metric ton (a tonne) of greenhouse gases which means that an acre's worth of beer production generates about 9 tonnes of carbon. But of that brewing production only 8.1% is due to the barley or 12% for once the barley is malted. Or 1.08 tonnes per acre. Which looks like to me that barley absorbs more carbon (1.377 tonnes) than it takes to get it into the malted state (1.08 tonnes).

Point? You don't get beer from looking at a bag of malt. But the closer you do, the less and less beer looks like a drain on the environment than the 1.5% might indicate. Planting enough forest for a perfect carbon off-set looks interesting as that 8.1 tonnes a year carbon debt to an average of 240 tonnes carbon credit per acre of mature forest could give a brewery a little under 30 years of 540 cases or 25 barrels of annual production. Which means Sad Adams would have to plant 80,000 acres to off set 30 years of its 2,000,000... (sorry)... 199,999 barrel production. Or 2,666 acres a year. Or 10.78 square kilometres a year. Sounds like a lot. Until you consider the scale of tree planting in British Columbia. I am sure that is all wrong. There must be an easier way to determine all this other than, you know, relying on me.

The Confederation of Cinque Ports (pronounced /ˌsɪŋk ˈpɔrts/) is a historic series of coastal towns in Kent and Sussex, at the eastern end of the English Channel where the crossing to the continent is narrowest. It was originally formed for military and trade purposes, but is now entirely ceremonial.
The name is Norman French for "five ports" – the five being Hastings, New Romney, Hythe, Dover, and Sandwich. They are supported by the two antient towns of Rye and Winchelsea, whose councils traditionally maintained defence contingents for the realm of England. Apart from the five ports and the two ancient towns, there are seven other members of the Confederation, which are considered to be Limbs of the other towns.

These are Lydd (Limb of New Romney), Folkestone, Faversham and Margate (Limbs of Dover), Deal and Ramsgate (Limbs of Sandwich) and Tenterden (Limb of Rye). There are in addition some 23 towns, villages and offices which have varying degrees of connection to the ancient Liberties of the Cinque Ports. Pevensey was once a Limb of Hastings, and the coastal confederation and during its mediæval period consisted of a confederation of 42 towns in all.[clarification needed]

Stonking boozer! The Cinq Ports is Very cozy and welcoming. Landlord knows his beers, and how to keep them. They always seems to have a great selection. The food is outstanding, and all homemade, try the scotch egg, I still dont know how he manages to get a runny yoke every time! It's a "PROPER PUB"

Mr.Paul.N 23-02-09
superb meal with excellent presentation.satisfaction guaranteed.the kitchen hosts an excellent chef who is very worthy of his title. after one visit you will certainly trail there again if a special occasion demands it. The Cinq Ports is VERY well priced, but if you require homely warmth & sheer class then this is the place to visit.

Mrs.French.A 05-03-09
Good beer, good food and plenty of bon hommie all in abundance at the Cinq Ports this revamped pub/restaurant. The new owners have totally turned this hostelry around, together with the resident chef they deserve all the success due to them. I have had several excellent meals here recently and also visited the establishment on special "themed" evenings including the recent live music gigs. Keep it going.
